Ann Coulter coming to San Francisco for fundraiser (EXCLOO)

The Chronicle has learned that conservative commentator and best-selling author Ann Coulter is coming to San Francisco this August for a fundraiser for a Young Republicans group. Look for an event and a VIP reception of some kind.

Coulter in the belly of the liberal beast? Whaaaa?

The connection is that Coulter is old pals with new SF GOP chair Harmeet Dhillon. They met when Dhillon was in law school at the University of Virgina at a Federalist Society meeting at Harvard University 20 or so years ago. “I think there were 250 men there and three women” Dhillon tells us, including Coulter.

No set date yet, but it will be shortly after Coulter’s next book is launched in June. Regardless when Coultergeist happens, it is bound to be an EVENT…one that’s either a red meat buffet for conservatives/patently offensive for liberals for this simple equation:

Coulter + Open Mic x Book Tour = Did She Really Say That?

Remember the controversy when Coulter used the word “faggot” — as a joke, she says — to describe former prez candidate John Edwards. And here’s her response the next day on FOX News.
